Lithium batteries have become extremely expensive, anyone having luck with other options?

I've gone back to Costco Duracells and they are working good. Not always 6 months with the cell cams but pretty close. That said i do not use bait for the cams they are just passive cams on trails or the driveway to our place. So i am not talking 1500 pics a month.

I use rechargeable batteries exclusively in everything now including trail cameras.  Panasonic eneloop pro are the best but Amazon basics high capacity are a very close 2nd.

I use Costco brand batteries in most everything I need batteries for.

That’s funny Duracell makes the Costco batteries.🤣
